Q:
The servo's run very fast! Is there a way of slowing them down.
A:
Hi Neil, You should be able to slow them down in the code. If you are using the Mearm package in Makecode, then the block 'Move X By X degrees' can be used to alter the speed. The closer to zero this is the slower the servo, the larger the value in either the + or - direction the quicker it moves.

Q:
Is it possible to see an example of a code made for micro:bit (blocks)
Asked by: Peter Bak-Jensen
A:
Hi Peter, It is possible to see some example code, however first you need to add the MeArm package to MakeCode. To do this paste the following link, https://github.com/mimeindustries/pxt-microbit-mearm, into the 'Add Package' section. Then copy the code located within 'test.tsb' on Github and paste this into MakeCode on the 'JavaScript' page, (removing old code first). Click back onto 'Blocks' and the code should be ready to go.

Q:
How to convert the pxt-microbit-mearm/mearm.ts to HEX for microbit.
Asked by: Wong Ah kheng
A:
Hi Mike, I've had a quick look at this, and the problem appears to be that MakeCode cannot pull in the MeArm package from GitHub. I've been onto the GitHub repo and manually copied the package code across into a custom package in MakeCode. It then formats fine and seems to be usable, obviously that's the most suitable solution but it is a temporary work around while we look further into this. It appears the most likely issue is that the MeArm package has not yet been approved for use by the Microsoft team.
